It's worse than I'm describing it -- I've done everything I can to allow anyone to mail to my test list, I've gone over every configuration possibility and yet the only messages it will even consider for moderation are those coming from the list owner, which is on the same server. It's not even looking at messages coming from, for example, my Gmail account. Even when I tell it to allow messages from non-members.
This looks like something terribly wrong with the setup of Mailman -- and the setup was done by my web hosting provider as part of Plesk on a virtual server. They're not responding to requests for support. Could it be that there's something in the setup of Mailman which I can change? It is possible that Mailman may be blocking receipt of any postings from external sources (i.e., emails sent from different servers)?
